sleeve wed and I woke up sick!



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I am scheduled to be sleeved on wed the 10th and woke up this morning with a slight sore throat. I am freaking out right now that I am going to really get sick and won't be able to have the surgery. I plan on calling first thing tomorrow they said to let them know about any high fever or cough but I don't want to chance anything!

Make sure you call . I know a few people who had to have their date change because they got sick!!!! Get yourself some medication and rest today

Allergy season just started. I've been taking Claritin every day to make sure my allergies don't turn into anything worse i.e. sinus infection. You can take plain Claritin. Not Claritin D. Feel better :)

Same thing happened to me two weeks ago. I was told as long I didn't have a fever or cough, they would go ahead with the surgery. It never did turn into anything serious. Because of being under anesthesia, it was important that my lungs were clear for breathing. Load up on Vitamin C and get as much rest as possible. Good luck!!

We share the same surgery day. I hope your sore throat turns out to be nothing and your surgery goes on as scheduled.

I'm scheduled for my EGD on the 10th and my sleeve on the 15th. I went for my chest x-ray and blood work Friday. I had lost my voice. I "spoke" to the anesthesiologist for a few mins. He didn't seem to notice or comment. Hopefully my chest x-ray will be clear and I can move forward. I'm going liquid only Tuesday in the hopes that all will move forward.
